R. H. Hardin, Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210

FORMULA

Empirical: a(n) = (1/5760)*n^8 + (1/2016)*n^7 + (1/576)*n^6 + (11/360)*n^5 + (409/5760)*n^4 + (49/288)*n^3 + (41/96)*n^2 + (2771/840)*n + 2.

Conjectures from Colin Barker, Sep 17 2018: (Start)

G.f.: x*(6 - 40*x + 127*x^2 - 224*x^3 + 255*x^4 - 177*x^5 + 77*x^6 - 19*x^7 + 2*x^8) / (1 - x)^9.

a(n) = 9*a(n-1) - 36*a(n-2) + 84*a(n-3) - 126*a(n-4) + 126*a(n-5) - 84*a(n-6) + 36*a(n-7) - 9*a(n-8) + a(n-9) for n>9.
